KISCOP & EDUCATION
In Kibera slum there is no single Government School or learning institution. The providers of education in the slum are the charitable organizations, churches plus some others, they are really doing a great job. KISCOP and the the Nairobi Christian Outreach Centre views education for all children as a basic necessity and that is the reason we offer quality Pre-school ( early childhood development)and Primary School education services and services to all children from Kibera slum. While basic education in Kenya is now provided by the state, many challenges remain which can prevent children from attending school regularly. KISCOP aim to support and educate as many of these children as possible, many who would not otherwise be able to meet their educational expenses.Thanks to Doug Ballinger and Help the Least of These that has sponsored 78 children out of the 200 children in our program. http://www.htlot.org/
Petronilla Akumu 
Petronilla Akumu is a partial orphan who lives with her father in the Kibera Slums. She managed to get grade B- in her final 0 Level exams but this was not enough to take her to a regular university program where she is looking forward to take a medical course. We have decided to support her rewind Form four in a boarding School so that she can attain a better grade that will give her straight admission into one of our public universities. Considering that she has been in one of the ill equipped Kibera Schools and also considering that she didn't have a favorable environment that could allow her concentrate in her studies, we are very confident that she will not disappoint but come out with flying colors. Petronilla is just one of the many girls from Kibera slums that if can be supported can change the future of Kibera and this nation and the world at large. Please let us keep her in prayers and support where possible. You can also extend your support to other girls in Kibera that needs education.
